:eng he breadth B of the heel, -the heelstop p is sm; in operative positon and the heel b1ake (1 is connected with the thread gude bar 71.. However, if the operator for gets te throw the brake g out of operation,

the stop moving. to the left strikes the brnke g :md fi;ends to shift the letter land the ban 71,. As the bar is arrestetl by the stop 1:), whie the rodl tends to continue its mmement, the driving mechanism would break, f the geer wheels aa nnd 'g were rigidly eonneeterl with each o ther. However, as these geer wheels are frictionally een nected Wth each other, the shock is taken up. The geur wheel y is arrested in its movernent while the geer wheel m is urther rotated by the s1ur bar moving -forward. If the pn1ts are again moved to the ri ht, the10d Z strkes against the 5170 1 be ore the red r1 hne completed its stroEe. As the stroke of the red Z is thus limited the geir wheel 3 is ikewse arrested, while thefiear wheel =;z: eontinues its rotatn. There ore the gear .heels are dis l gee d relatively in each other 11IW'QPIOSJ sene as compared to the memment"tb the left, so that they as sume t1e correct positons. Whi1e in describingthe inventori refer cnee has been made to an example in which the frictionul engagement of the parts is pimided between the geer wheels and 3 I wish t; te be understood, that my invention is net limitec tothe mechanisrn shwn in the figmee and that "arous changes may be made wthn the gist of my invention. For emmple hestope or the lugs n mny be made ehfteble.

1. in. ik flat hosie ry frame, the combination with a l" ;cprocating slur connectng bur and a thread guide yieldingly comected with he s'lur eonnecting bar for;operntion thereby,of a phualitj of stop members reciproeating in the same drection as the slur conneeting bar and thread gide bal and at: a ewe1r speed end disposed in position for heing overtaken by sad thread gude lam and to retard the sme, -yielding driving means fee. the stop members, and end stops 1or arresting the thread guide bar in different end positions.

2. In a flat hosiery frame, the combina tion with a reciprocatng S1111 connecting bar, and {a thread guide yleldingly connected with the S1111 connectng bar fox opera tien zhereby of a pluralty of pairs of stop members rec1pro0ating in the samedireetion as the slur ee nneetng bei and thread guide bal and at a lower speed, the stop m embers of each pair being dsposed in pos1t1on or being overtaken by said thread guide bar members ;reciprocating in the same directien as the slur connecting bar and thread guide bar and at a lower speed, the stop members of each pairbein die osed in position fox being merteken y sa1 d thread gui de .bar and to retard the same respectvely when the thread guide bar is moving in opposte directions, yielding driving nens for the stop members, and stops fox arrestn the thread guidbar in different end pos 1tions, and an end step located in aosit1on for ;arrestng the thread gui de in lnitinl position and adapted to return the driving means havng y-ielded in correct postion.

4. In a flat hosiery fra'me, the combination Wih a reeiprocating S1111 connectng bar, and a thread guide yieldingly connected With-the s1ur conneeting bar for operation thereby, of a plurality of stop members disposed in pos1tion for being overtaken by saicl thread guide bar and to retard the same, frictionully connected geur wheels interposed between said stop members and the slur. connecting bar and adaptedto impmt to the sad stop members recprocatng movement ofreduced speed and in the d recztion of the movement of the slm connecting bar and thread guide bar, and end stops 'or mresting the thrend gude bal in difi'erent end positions.

as my nvention, I baveegned m y name in presence of two subsenbmg W1tnesses.
